怎么写一篇关于以‘学习的重要性’为主题的英语作文

Answer 1

Why is Learning Important?
‘Learning is a process of active engagement with experience. It is what we do when we want to make sense of the world. It may involve the development or deepening of skills, knowledge, understanding, awareness, values, ideas and feelings, or an increase in the capacity to reflect. Effective learning leads to change, development and the desire to learn more.’
The Campaign for Learning’s definition of learning

We know that learning through our lives makes us generally healthier, happier, longer-living and wealthier. Not only do we benefit as individuals, but learning beyond school has wide ranging and immeasurable benefits for our families and communities, society and the economy.
The case for lifelong learning is well established. But relatively recent and major shifts in our world has made the ability to learn through our lives even more important. Having the right attitudes, dispositions and skills for learning are increasingly likely to define those of us who will get on in life.
The changing world of work

Globalisation, the disappearance of ‘jobs for life’ and new technologies are transforming the way we work.

The UK’s economy has shifted from large scale manufacturing to high tech industries such as aerospace and pharmaceuticals, and value added services. Continuing technological advances and the shift to digital have had a huge impact on traditional ways of working. Jobs that once required no basic literacy skills are disappearing, with the majority now involving intermediate or advance skills.
Equally, the way we work has changed. Flexible working, home-working, part-timers, job-shares, independent contractors: the options for employment have never been more varied, with the attendant danger that those of us without skills will fall through the cracks, lacking employee rights or opportunities for training and development. The flip-side of flexible working is networked workplaces, where technology allows us to communicate with people all over the world as easily as with our neighbour, putting a premium on communication skills. Relationships are the new bottom line.

In this new world, the ability to obtain, assimilate and apply the right knowledge will be highly valued by employers. The ability to learn how to work with others effectively will increase our employment prospects.

We will no longer be judged solely by qualifications gained in the past, but will also be assessed by our capacity and motivation to learn and adapt in the future.

A digital landscape

Technology has changed the way we shop, interact, play and manage our lives. Being curious, open minded and willing to learn means we can take advantage of all the digital world has to offer.

The move of essential and statutory services online means that there are risks to not engaging with technology. Those of us with barriers to technology, and low digital skills and understanding are already being disadvantaged both socially and economically.

Learning in families

Learning as a family develops positive intergenerational relationships, and supports children to thrive and achieve at school. It can help us as adults explore our own interests and start new learning journeys.
Parental involvement in children's learning is vital to their educational success. But changes in the way children are taught, increased testing and more expectations for parents to support their children are just some of the challenges parents may face, especially if they feel unconfident and lack know-how.

Learning to thrive
People with few skills and barriers to learning are at ever greater risk of social and economic exclusion. We must learn not just to keep up, but to stay on top of life. This is about far more than just individual success – the individualism and consumerism of our media age requires thoughtful learning for both personal fulfilment and collective citizenship.

一、注意审题
小作文的审题(即审读材料)很重要,决定着文章的成败.因为一个小作文的材料中,往往隐含了若干个写作要求,如不细心审读,抓不到这些隐含的要求,就很容易出现错误。
二、注意语言的简洁
这一点体现在两方面.其一,小作文字数一般是100┄300字,受篇幅限制,语言要求简洁明了.其二,如果是写应用文,则语言也一定要简洁,因为语言简洁是应用文写作的最基本要求.
三、力求结构完整
小作文是片断性作文,而非篇章.虽如此,但不能一味忽略结构的完整性.一篇小作文如果能够做到结构完整,则效果会更好。
四、注意表达方式的运用
受文体的制约,一篇文章总以某种表达方式为主,同时兼用其他表达方式为主.小作文也应注意这一点.如江西省2002年中考语文小作文题为二选一,(1)通过某一情景或场面,描写你最喜欢的色彩.(2)就你最喜欢的色彩,发表议论.无论选哪一题,或描写、或议论,总得以一种表达方式为主.但如果能兼用其他表达方式,如兼用议论和抒情,表达自己对某种色彩的某中看法和喜爱之情,则能使短文大为增色.
